gEAr
gEAr gEAr gEAr Gear Indicator setup
This gauge has a single digit display for gear position. The gauge can learn the gear ratios based on speed and rpm so no
sensors are needed, just what you’ve already connected. It will work with 4, 5, 6, or 7 speed transmissions. The factory preset
option will preset the indicator to work with a stock 5 or 6 speed drive train. With a stock 6 speed there will be a slight delay the
first time you shift to sixth gear as the system verifies the gear. Subsequent shifts to sixth gear will not have the delay. You can
also program each gear position for aftermarket transmissions or if you’ve changed wheel size or sprocket size. To program the
gear positions, begin at a section of road where you can gradually shift through all of the gears. Press and hold the switch while
turning the key on and starting the engine. Once the engine is running, release the switch.
•
Press and release the switch until “ gEAr ” is displayed, press and hold the switch until “ - ” is displayed.
•
The display will show “ off ”, “ PRESET ”, “ P-883- ”, or “ Learn ”. “ oFF ” will disable the indicator. “ PRESET ” will set the indicator for an
original factory transmission. “ P-883- ” will set the indicator for a Sportster 883 transmission. “ LEARN ” allows it to work with
virtually any transmission option.
•
To program each gear individually, press and release the switch until “ Learn ” is displayed, then press and hold the switch.
•
The message will show “ LO TCH ” if the engine rpm is below 1500, or “ LO SPD ” if the vehicle speed is below 5 MPH.
•
Begin driving in 1
st
gear. The display should show GEAR 1 and the “ 1 ” should be flashing. Drive at a steady speed until the “ 1 ”
goes steady and then changes to a flashing “ 2 ”, it should only take about 20 seconds if the speed and RPMs are steady.
Optional: If the gear does not stop flashing you can manually override and jump to the next gear by pressing and
releasing the switch to store the gear position quicker.
•
Shift to 2
nd
gear and drive at a steady speed.
•
Wait until the “ 2 ” goes steady and then changes to a flashing “ 3 ”. Shift to 3rd gear.
Optional: If the gears do not stop flashing you can manually override and jump to the next gear by pressing and releasing
the switch to store the gear position quicker.
•
Repeat this through each gear. When you are done, come to a complete stop or press and hold the switch until the display shows
“
donE ” and then release it.
•
Press and release the switch to restart the gauges in normal operation, verify the gear position by riding through each gear and
seeing if positions agree.
